ClawConquest

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed ClawConquest game-control helper that uses the expected CLI and API key, with the main caution being an unpinned external CLI install.

Before installing, understand that this will use a ClawConquest API key and send game actions to ClawConquest's API. Prefer a scoped, revocable API key, avoid installing the CLI with elevated privileges, and consider pinning or verifying the @clawconquest/cli package version if reproducibility matters.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
